Abstract

The InnoSlab concept was developed at Fraunhofer ILT more than 15 years ago using Nd-based laser crystals. InnoSlab is a highly efficient amplification setup that allows for an extremely broad range of laser parameters due to its inherently simple setup. Today InnoSlab using Yb-based laser crystals is the leading amplifier technology for achieving highest output power in the ultrashort pulse regime.
